Since 1984, Speed the Plough has been weaving intricate rhythms and melodies into their engaging chamber-rock music. Despite many member changes, they're still based in Haledon, NJ and have re-booted to include a couple of family members in the sextet. Their latest album "Now" also inspired a re-boot of Steve Fallon's Coyote label. Speed the Plough played live on Irene's show.

@JakeGould - I just had a son a month ago, so I'm pretty much on diaper duty for the foreseeable future...also related to that, I have negative disposable income for fun things like records and fairs....maybe next year. I brought my daughter when she was a baby, but I think she was atleast a year old by that point.

JakeGould:

@VaninDC: The thing about food is we are—at least most of us are—trained from an early age not to “waste” food. But eating remnants of bad food that might be worth like $2 at most could end up costing you more when you are sick. I am aware of this after getting food sick last week. Just throw the stuff out!

Shake Shack is gourmet but I guess no preservatives, meaning faster spoil...? Not sure. Anyways I'm fine.

No way Carmichael...we are DONE!
We are on a big "no food waste" kick right now - as I mentioned, money's pretty tight - yesterday I told my family the "5 second rule" has been expanded to the "30 second rule"
  11:17pm
JakeGould:

@Irene: Thanks! And on a positive note, being knocked out for 3 days like that after having that death flu earlier in the month has pushed me back on the “Eat healthy; avoid crap; pay $2-3 more for better food…” wagon again. Never again!
  11:18pm
JakeGould:

@MikeEast: Well, I mean that if there is a risk of food getting spoiled is the value of $4-5 worth of food more than you being rendered sick for 2 days? So yeah… I grew up poor… I know how to the stretch food budgets… But there has got to be a limit.

This Shut Up series of albums are so great. Boiled down Zappa ....

Jake, I'm with ya! We've been trying to eat a little healthier-- except for too many nights when we have to order out because we work so late. I cook when I can.
  11:22pm

Yeah, the way I see it nowadays is if I have to work in a scenario where I don’t have a dietary choice the other days when I do have that choice balance it out. I’m no food Nazi!

@Irene: I love this series because it filters out the Spike Jonesy smarmy stuff he would occasionally do. Just give me your guitar prowess, Frank.
  11:26pm
JakeGould:

@MikeEast: Good plan. The nice thing though about being at home on “diaper duty” is you also theoretically have more time to cook for yourself. Like real cooking that takes a good few hours. Also, after this food poisoning incident I highly recommend a new food thing to deal with exhaustion: Coconut water. It’s not a magic cure-all, but if you are stressed and dehydrated it really balances you out well.

Catching up on comments, it looks like TWO of you are on "diaper duty", but in different ways.

Most cases of food poisoning I don't think come from too-long storage of food in the refrigerator, but from stuff that was mishandled to begin with.

I think most food poisoing is a by-product of the industrial food distro system that favors large-batch through-put. Having "contributions" from a thousand cows in one burger increases the odds that something may go *very* wrong. So one bad apple suddenly becomes everybody's problem instead of someone's problem.
